The Office 2/11......."Manager and Salesman"

  This episode was WAY better than either of the last two and it began to get back to what used to make it so great. Jim putting Dwight's tie in his coffee gave me hope that the show hasn't completely jumped the shark yet, although it's definitely on the diving board.

  OK, I just changed my mind, The Office has officially jumped the shark. Of the 10 most common signs a series has jumped the shark, The Office has done six of them:
  
  1. They did it - Pam and Jim finally hooking up
  2. Wedding - Again, Jim and Pam
  3. Moving - Jim moving to Stanford, them back to Scranton with Andy
  4. Special guest start - See Kathy Bates
  5. New kid in town/cousin Oliver - I would say that this was Andy first, now Erin
  6. Birth - Jim and Pam are having their baby after the Olympics
  
  I've got to give them credit though, they didn't just jump the shark by accident or half way, they went for it accomplishing 6 of the most common jumping the shark techniques. They may have jumped the shark in more ways than any other show ever.

  i thought it was pretty good. it was pretty funny watching Michael as a salesman and having Jim tell him to get to work. you could tell right from the start it wasnt going to last long though.

  I believe the show needs to focus more on Creed. Show him at home interacting with the young women he has chained up in his basement.
